Rent & eviction protection

Is 1426-1428 Noe St rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Built before 1979
Built 1969
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1969
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1426-1428 Noe Street in Noe Valley, owned by Connor Smith, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1969. Most recently, in 2022, the second floor received an interior remodel valued at $50,000, which included kitchen, master bedroom/bath, and guest bathroom updates, along with plumbing work for fixture relocation and gas fireplace installation. The building has seen consistent maintenance and upgrades over the years, including the installation of eight vinyl windows in 2006, replacement of four exterior doors and one window in 2019, and the addition of a solar panel system in 2015 consisting of seven roof-mounted modules.

The property has experienced some maintenance challenges, including a sewage backup issue in January 2023, which was resolved by the PUC Sewer Operations. A tree inspection in February 2023 found an overgrown tree in fair-good condition with no urgent safety concerns. More recently, the building underwent a routine building inspection in September 2024. The only parking-related incidents on record include a driveway blocking complaint in October 2024 and a general service request in November 2022, neither of which directly impacted the building's habitability.

Risk rating

How 1426-1428 Noe St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
97thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 56 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Notices of Violation, owner's portfolio

DBI NOVs across all buildings this owner is registered on — a signal of systemic maintenance issues across the portfolio.
